Since Bradley Beal went down five games ago, Russell Westbrook is *averaging* 24 PPG, 14 RPG, 13 APG while playing 38 MPG.

I'll be honest, I have been looking forward to watching the team play again. Have not felt this way all year.

It's not out of the question at all that the Magic have Anthony/Hampton/Okeke/WCJ all on the floor at the same time in non-garbage minutes as early as tonight.
I'm not sure what else you could ask for in a lost season other than that.

right there with you.
At the start of the season, I had 3 things that kept me engaged with this team.
Fultz, Okeke and Cole.
It's been a while since I've gotten to watch 2 of those 3 perform.
Now add in Hampton & Carter, I'm now getting 4 things to watch!!
I'd like a 110-109 loss please. Bacon & Ennis go 1-10, rest of the team shoots +50% from the field.

Exactly. Lots of moving parts on this team now to be intrigued in.

This would be an important game to lose. But we'll probably win.

&& despite that during the same stretch the Wizards are 1-4 with losses to the Pistons and Raptors. This feels like a win.

Man, they should've beat the Raptors. Refs swallowed whistle on last play.

This is a winnable game, and that makes me happy. But I guess we are all supposed to be pro-tankers now.
Go Magic ?

I agree.
I want to see our young guys shine, I'm hoping Bacon/Ennis to screw up the win.
